This workflow automates the process of capturing contacts from Gmail emails and storing them in a MySQL database, making contact management seamless and efficient. It is designed for use cases such as lead collection, backup of contact data, and building mailing lists.
The workflow begins with the Gmail Trigger node, which checks for new emails every minute. Each incoming email is processed by a Code node that extracts the sender’s name and email address. If no name is provided, it defaults to null. The extracted data is then sent to a MySQL node, which performs an ‘upsert’ operation—adding new contacts or updating existing ones based on the email address—ensuring the database remains current.
Key nodes include:
– Gmail Trigger: Listens for new emails.
– Code Node: Parses email sender details.
– MySQL Node: Inserts or updates contact info in the database.
This workflow is highly customizable: you can add filters to process only specific emails, or expand the data stored (like subject or message ID). It suits marketing teams, sales organizations, or any business wanting to automate contact data collection from email communications, providing a reliable way to build and maintain a rich contact database without manual effort.
